Summerland completes the publication project Talonbooks began in 1990, with the publication of The Athabasca Ryga , a collection of Ryga's early writings from his Alberta years until 1963. The 1960s, after the Rygas moved to Summerland, British Columbia, were a period of growing artistic strength and commercial success for Ryga, culminating the creative triumph of The Ecstasy of Rita Joe . The largely unpublished writings included in Summerland show him return, after the success of The Ecstasy of Rita Joe , to the large, difficult political and social questions which had inspired him from the earliest days of his long intellectual journey of self-discovery.
